Forty-nine Spanish hacienda casitas spread across 45 acres of rolling Rancho Santa Fe hills, each with a fireplace trimmed in hand-painted tile, beamed ceilings, a private garden patio, and a soaking tub big enough to take seriously. This Forbes Five Star resort sits far enough from the coast to feel genuinely removed, yet Del Mar and La Jolla are close. A spa, racquet sports program, and golf privileges round things out for guests who consider unplugging a full-time project.

Croquet lawns and rose gardens on eleven eucalyptus-shaded hilltop acres: the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe is a quietly grand old resort in one of Southern California's wealthiest zip codes, which gives you a rough sense of the tariff. The rooms have been updated over the years without scrubbing out the chandeliers-and-white-gloves atmosphere that made the place what it is. Selected by the Michelin Guide.
